Robb, Winfield post fastest times at Wintergreen

Over 200 racers turned out for the VA State Annual Gut-Wrenching Championships at Wintergreen on Saturday. The fastest time of the day was posted by Phillip Robb of Nature's Path. His 35:47 netted him a victory in the Cat 1/2 event by over 2 1/2 minutes. The next fastest time of the day was Ted Michaels' (Evolution Cycling) 35:55, giving him a comfortable margin of victory in the Cat 3 race (and leaving him with enough in the tank to win the 30+ race with a time of 37:13 a scant hour and a half later). Rounding out the men's virtual podium was Cat 4 strongman Elliott O'Brien (Team Traveller) with a time of 36:14.

Diedre Winfield of CRC raced to victory in the Women's 1/2/3, and posted the fastest women's time of 42:55. Second fastest women's time on the day was Cat 4 Catherine Von Storch (CRC), whose time of 47 flat netted her a category championship. 1/2/3 racer Brenna Santoro (TriPower) rolled across with the third fastest women's time of the day, scoring second in her category with a 47:21.

The GamJams Honorable Order of Suffering award goes to Danny Oughton of Team Carytown Bicycle Company. Danny won the Juniors 10-12 event with a time of 1:18:47. An hour and a quarter is a long time for a racer Danny's age to even be out for a ride, much less racing full bore up an interminable wall into a headwind. If suffering has formative years, it's 10-12 for Danny.

Complete results are available on the CRC website. CRC also points us towards an extensive photo gallery of 200+ shots.
